Chemical Structure

2-(3-Chloro-5-(trifluoromethyl)pyridin-2-yl)-2-(3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)acetonitrile CAS 338407-22-0 chemical structure

Description

2-(3-Chloro-5-(trifluoromethyl)pyridin-2-yl)-2-(3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)acetonitrile (C15H7ClF6N2) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, fluorine/chlorine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

2-(3-Chloro-5-(trifluoromethyl)pyridin-2-yl)-2-(3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)acetonitrile (CAS 338407-22-0), molecular formula C15H7ClF6N2 and molecular weight 364.67 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-(3-Chloro-5-(trifluoromethyl)pyridin-2-yl)-2-(3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)acetonitrile meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
